Dunn Vineyards
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
No detailed notes as we were out to dinner with friends. However, a very classic example of Randy’s Cabernet. This 86 no different. Still in youth form with another 10 plus years of life.

Sep 9th, 2018Very nice bottle and oldest I've had to date. Dusty and dirty, with some saddle leather and oak on the nose, surprisingly still alive with some red fruit on the palate.. Still spry for a 29 yr old!

Dec 29th, 2012This Dunn Napa (quicker to evolve than the Howell Mountain) is drinking beautifully and is at peak, still shows a tad of that famous Dunn “structure”, long, lingering finish, terrific Napa Cabernet!!
